I am extremely interested in
being considered for the Contracting Specialist position available with your organization
and am submitting my resume for review; I believe you will find my background strongly
matches the requirements of this position. With a Master of Science in
Procurement & Acquisition Management, as well as Bachelor and Associate
Degrees, and experience gained during nearly 16 years of successful involvement
in relevant assignments, I am well-versed in managing operations, meeting
standards and guidelines, and achieving objectives.

Additionally, I have received
training in such relevant areas as Cost Analysis, Acquisition Logistics
Fundamentals, Forecasting, Negotiations, Risk Management, Quality Assurance
Auditing, Product/Quality/Manufacturing Fundamentals, Program Manager Levels I
and II, and am a Certified Quality Engineer.

As Chief of the Developmental
Planning Branch, I served as Contractor Technical Representative with
responsibilities for assessing contractual support, performing technical
evaluations of new contracts as well as modifications of existing contracts. During
service as Chief, Delta Product and Quality Engineering Branch, I structured
program resources to ensure optimal organizational efficiencies including
monitoring and evaluating the performance of the prime contractor; I also led
weekly meetings with involved parties to assure full understanding of
requirements for hardware quality and oversaw work of contractors to ensure all
needed coordination. I held final approval authority for actions and was in
charge of facilitating corrective actions.

Additionally, I collaborated
with supply contractors in developing needed processes, identifying and
resolving various supplier process problems to assure avionic hardware
reliability; I also developed and implemented contractor metrics and designed a
first-ever supplier audit process for Wing-wide integration on all systems to
ensure product integrity and feasibility.

In an earlier assignment I
was tasked with comprehensive responsibilities for developing, testing,
acquiring, sustaining and fielding force protection command and control systems,
and oversaw the acquisition of $351M in assessment devices, considered to be
the largest-ever procurement action for Security Forces personnel. I also
utilized strong negotiating capabilities

in resolving a contractual
disagreement regarding a $2.8M security camera purchase action and utilized the
Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPAR) to track contractor
performance and schedule activities needed for achieving program development,
production and sustainment actions. Additionally, I was successful in
identifying accounting errors on several contractor invoices which resulted in
savings of $50,000.

Throughout my career I have
exhibited a commitment to quality and consistent compliance with critical governing
directives, standards, policies and procedures. I am confident in my ability
to deliver immediate and long-term results and you will find me to be a
performance-driven leader and collaborative team player focused on achieving
and surpassing goals. I am eager to discuss how my qualifications match your
needs, and look forward to interviewing with you at your earliest convenience.
In advance, thank you for your time and consideration.
